Justice Reinvestment Initiative

Justice reinvestment is a data-driven approach to corrections policy that seeks to cut spending and reinvest savings in practices that have been empirically shown to improve safety and hold offenders accountable. As part of the Justice Reinvestment Initiative (JRI), Vera provides technical assistance to states seeking to apply the approach to their local prison and supervision systems.
